?

😉

Think you're going to struggle as I guess you're finding - 26.8 is increasingly unusual

Want to buy my spare race face Xy in 26.8 with well worn anodising (not scratched) and paint it? 🙂

I've got a (black) 26.8mm race face thanks.
Have you ever tried spray painting one - does it work/look ok?

I just bought a 27.2mm for a Singular Swift I picked up (2nd hand), but didn't know the older ones were bloomin' 26.8mm 👿

I have done it on a very worn Thomson actually - painted black - it looked fine from a metre or so away and didn't look awful close up but you wouldn't put it on your Sunday best bike 🙂

FWIW, I have a Swift too and reckon that white components look tacky with it... 😉

hmm I was thinking the white was working (even my wife with more style than myself thought so too) with white post held up and white stem on.

Don't think painting is the way to go though.

it needs a white post to match the stem and white niner carbon forks!
(got naked carbon forks on now, but think white would be better - hoping its not going to be an expensive mistake) 😯

Rocketdog has white saddle/stem on his and I reckon it looks a bit crap - He disagrees though 🙂

Give it a go, what's the worst that could happen?
